I just turned 18, and want to get a credit card to establish credit.?
My bank turned me down because I am still in high school, and all the other places turned me down because I have built no credit. I just applied onling at Mastercard, and will find out soon, but I wanted to buy my school supplies with it, then pay it off to start to build. Since my mother wont sign on with me and my father is dead, I have to go at it alone. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I do not apply for a student card. I am a senior in High School

avoid credit cards like the plague.
there are plenty of ways of building a credit history, whith out credit cards.
like opening a bank account whith 1k and then ask for a loan of 1k. it will costs you some interest but your credit score will rise.

18?
let me tell you this, dont get a credit card , money is addictive..when you start to spend in silly things and getting late on your payments your are makign someone else rich and you will be doign exactly what the suits in the 36 th floor want... enslaving yourself.

if you do get it..
apply the golden rule, "ONLY BUY THINGS THAT WILL APRECIATE IN VALUE OR MAKE YOU MONEY"
expensive dinners and trips dont count.

Secured credit cards option are exercised generally by those with bad credit history and poor credit score to get themselves back on track. Credit card issuing companies, ask for collateral because they find providing credit cards to such people too risky. A good use of secured credit card can give the credit card issuer enough confidence to issue an unsecured credit card in your name.

A good thing to have with secured credit cards is that they should report your spending habits to the three major credit reporting agencies. Strange but true, not all secured credit card holders do that. Unless this feature is present in a secured credit card, it will be of little use for those trying to use it for rebuilding their credit history.

First of all, the more you apply for things the more it hurts your credit. The first thing to is get something simple in your name, a cell phone from wal-mart with a contract( they approve everyone) or a department store card. This will give you a foundation pay on time everytime and it will improve. Then hit the big guys. Dont ever chargemore than 1/3 of your limit if you want to really improve your score with a credit card. Just charge a little pay alot charge a little pay alot. Trust me, it works wonderfully. I'm 20 now, with a credit rating most 25 year olds would love.

This is what you do!
if you want to buy school supplies with it im assuming that you are going to college so go to capital one or american express and apply for the student card. also do you have a job? if you do you can go to like pacsun and apply for the student card !!MAKE SURE YOU TELL THEM THE STUDENT CARD!! But dont go crazy

Start with a secured card then that will lead to unsecured offers. If you are going to college pay a portion with a student loan, this will help establish your credit

Capitol One might be a good place. Their customer service isn't that great, but it would be a good place to start.

You could go a few different ways about building credit :
1.Join a credit union that offers a small credit building loan or secured credit card - a $500 credit limit/balance should be more than enough for school supplies if you are a senior in high school.
2. Trade your bank for one that is more credit friendly towards high school students...I noticed some banks and credit unions would offer special programs for teenagers -some offer financial advice as well...
3. a store card...I started with a jewelry store card- but that won't help with school supplies. Walmart had turned me down...

good luck and keep in mind that one of the reasons a 25 year old might have worse credit than a 20 years old is because credit cards are so tempting...and that was an age when I got tempted so easy...
